- How can data be visualised in physical form? Can the data be understood, or is it a purely aesthetic output?
Expectations and Gradings
Grades will be based on group presentations and exercises, class participation, documentation (journal) and final work.
Contributing to constructive group feedback is an essential aspect of class participation.
Regular attendance is required. Two or more unexcused absences will affect the final grade. Arriving late on more than one occasion will also affect the grade.

Journal Documentation 20%
Class participation 10%
Any assignment that remains unfulfilled receives a failing grade.
Deliverables
- Kickoff Exercises
- Final Project and Presentation
- Documentation
A 'Journal' is developed by each student that reflects on learnings from the course. It should be in the form of an online blog (ie. WordPress, Tumblr or other):
- The journal should be structured in a generally comprehensible manner
- The lecture notes, including annotations, are stored
- Notes, sketches for each lesson should be included as well
